Skyward Sword is my System too slow?

11-20-2011, 08:26 AM #1

Hi,
I am trying to get Skyward Sword running on my system, but I have horrible lags and like ~5-20FPS only.
I've read many threads and which settings to use but it just doesn't help.
Does my system simply not have enough performance?

Win7 32-Bit
CPU: Intel E8400 @ 3GHz
GPU: Nvidia GeForce 9800GT
RAM: 4GB DDR2 or 3 can't remember

Thanks in advance

Did you check your temps? You should be getting fullspeed or nearly fullspeed on that hardware.

Are you using Anisotropic Filtering or Anti-Aliasing? When I set to 1x and none (respectively), the game runs perfectly. If I increase either one, it lags horribly, and my computer's pretty dece.

If you don't mind, efb to texture should give you a speed-up

Yes and which revision of Dolphin did you use? It looks like an old revision you'd better use recent ones and Dolphin 3.0 first

My cpu cores about 49-52°C
gpu about 47°C

But strangly it now works, even though I didn't change a thing.
I have no idea why but well I dont have a problem with that.

Thanks for you help.
